In last week’s article, I had a look at five remaining free agent cornerbacks who could be upgrades over whichever of the Commanders’ current CBs is slated to start opposite from Trey Amos. Today I’ll have a look at three CBs currently on other teams’ rosters who could become available at roster cutdowns. These guys […]
Happy Monday, Camden Chatters! I hope you had a nice weekend. Things started off poorly for the Orioles with two losses to the Nationals, including an embarrassing 13-3 rout on Saturday. But they finished the series with a solid 7-3 victory to salvage one game. The offense yesterday was powered by home runs from guys […]
After today’s loss to the Orioles, I could focus on the negatives, but I do not think that is the story of this weekend. Even though the Nats could not pull off the sweep, it was still a very successful weekend in the nation’s capital. The Nats did something they have not done in a […]

After a deeply gratifying win to get to .500 yesterday, the Nats have a chance to sweep the O’s. Getting to .500 is cool, but getting over that hump would be even better. They will have a chance to do just that in front of what should be another stellar crowd at Nationals Park. The […]
Taylor Ward will bat first and serve as the designated hitter today as the Orioles look to avoid a sweep in DC. Ward will be followed by shortstop Gunnar Henderson and first baseman Pete Alonso. Samuel Basallo will do the catching with Adley Rutschman starting the game on the bench. Tyler O’Neill, Colton Cowser, and […]
The Nats have finally done it! After 15 failed attempts, the Nationals finally got over the hump, beating the Orioles 13-3 to reach .500. It is May 17th, and the Washington Nationals enter play with a 23-23 record. Seeing the instant impact this new regime has made has truly been a joy to watch as […]
Hello, friends. If the Orioles had been determined to do everything in their power to squander any good feelings or positive momentum from managing to win two out of three against the Yankees, the last two games against the Nationals would hardly have played out any differently. What was a close game yesterday got out […]
When the Lakers traded for Rui Hachimura in 2023, they were acquiring a disgruntled wing, upset that the Wizards were not willing to commit to him long-term. The player who helped them to the second round of the 2026 playoffs years later had changed drastically, embracing his role on a team and franchise that has […]
After coming inches away from tying the game in the top of the 7th, a seven-run bullpen blowup in the bottom of the inning sunk the Orioles, leading to a 13-3 loss to the Nationals in DC. The Orioles offense finally came alive in the 7th after a lackluster first six inning for the Baltimore […]
Where to watch: MASN/MASN+ or FS1 (National) Probable pitchers: RHP Chris Bassitt (3-2, 5.21 ERA, 26 K) vs. RHP Cade Cavalli (1-2, 4.02 ERA, 44 K) After an incredibly unlucky night for the offense on Friday, the Orioles look to even this season’s first Battle of the Beltways series tonight in DC. Most of Birdland […]

It was a tough loss yesterday, but the Nats still got the series win in Cincinnati. Now the Nats head home and welcome a local rival for the first time this season. It is the first edition of the Battle of the Beltway for 2026. The Nats and O’s are two teams with similar records, […]
Coming off a 14-run loss is never how you want a series to end, but the Nationals should be content with taking the result of their Thursday night contest against the Cincinnati Reds after winning the first two games. A Luis Garcia Jr. and Daylen Lile takeover saw them glide to a 10-4 victory in […]
The Washington Commanders 2026 schedule hasn’t been released for long, yet it has already been broken down every which way. That was certainly the case here at Hogs Haven, where Scott Jennings and I have been writing about it virtually none stop since the official NFL schedule release on Thursday evening. That includes game-by-game predictions, trends and analysis of how the schedule could help or hurt the […]
Earlier this week, former NBA player Jason Collins died at the age of 47 after a battle with glioblastoma, a form of brain cancer. He played 13 years in the NBA, including part of the 2012-13 season for the Washington Wizards where he played six games. While he was with the Wizards, Collins announced that […]
The Wizards were just given a reason to reconsider their selection in the 2026 NBA Draft.
The Washington Commanders open the 2026 preseason with a home game against the Miami Dolphins. They will be hosting a joint practice with their first opponent of the preseason, something Dan Quinn has done the last two seasons. That information was first reported by Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic on Thursday evening. Washington had joint […]
In an exclusive interview with Federal Baseball, new President of Business Operations Jason Sinnarajah talked about a wide range of issues, including the decline in attendance, beer prices and a potential stadium reboot. Sinnarajah took his new role at the beginning of the year and has his hands full. However, he is working tirelessly to […]
The Nats have been mediocre or worse since COVID (unrelated... OR IS IT) and this year feels different. The young bats are improving to the point you think the line-up can keep the Nats competitive for the season and with some pitching luck... Look we're not talking playoffs here but .500? Or at least best record since 2019? But before you take a close to .500 record as a sign of things being different let's remember 2025 : June 6th the Nats were 30-33. 2024 : June 23rd the Nats we...
A matchup that was once known as the MASN Cup takes on a new identity this summer. The Nationals are now one of the many teams that works directly with MLB to broadcast their games locally. Meanwhile, the Orioles are back out on their own channel for the first since 2004, when they were still […]
I don’t like to sugarcoat things. If something looks fantastic, I like to point it out. If something looks bad, I will bring that to the forefront. In this series, “The Cold, Hard Truth,” I will give my analysis on various parts of the team in an effort to allow healthy discussions on the specific […]
The Colts’ 2026 schedule is officially out, and it’s clear where the pressure points are. Indianapolis opens with a brutal three-game stretch against the Ravens, Chiefs and Texans before heading overseas to face the Commanders in London. From there, the schedule settles down in some places, but the Colts still have several games that could […]
